hello Nico,

i think you have disabled the cookies in you browser... that is one
reason why session works with SID but not without. For session to work
properly session id is by default saved as cookies.

i can't think of any other reason... other then their is also a bug in
PHP where in session sometimes does not work and works other times.. so
my suggestion if cookies are all fine then use SID.

cheers
Amit
